Even as low as 30% is OK.. they'll even produce more THC when the air is dry, they use it as a defense mechanism against drying out. At least it's what i've read (and from my own experience as well) 30% humidity works great in flowering.

Bucket(s) of water, a fan standing behind them. That's a cheap alternative that works very well and it's how a humidifier works in practice (at least the one i have)...

my grow area is pretty small so if i jus used a bowl instead of a bucket will that work and should i put boiling water in it?

Ok, quick BIO 101 lesson:
With a higher relative humidity, it is relative due to the temperature.. google it, the leaves will grow wider since the plant will need to breathe more with that much moisture in the air. When the RH is lower the leaves will be smaller since the won't need a lot of surface area to breathe.
Now, if you want ample light penetration through the canopy a lower RH is for you.
If you want more resin, a lower RH is for you. This plant will produce more resin during its flowering cycle in order to trap in moisture.
MY estimations, and currently used, RH for:
Seedling/cloning - 60-70%
Vegging - 40-50%
Flowering - 30-40%

Just put tapwater into a bowl or bucket depending on grow area. Spray them once in a while if you know your humidity is low, but don't do it directly after watering them, too much water kills them.
